I was given the opportunity to share this passage with you since I am an affiliate. I figure all students need access to a quality library online. Hence I collect merchants to advertise that meet this need. That said, enjoy learning about a religious symbol or two.
And do not forget about the affiliate disclosure in the side panel!

There are all kinds of classic literature out there that people with problems can read and see themselves in the reading. Hopefully, this is therapeutic; hopefully it accelerates the healing process. There are modern novels out there, too, that serve such a function. I read one such book last week.

In a few pages it chronicled the stripping away of the ego of a victim in an abusive marriage. But this story, told here with her too-rapid acceptance of healing insights, is a bodice-ripper romance. Why should that matter? Maybe the book will be read by the women who might not read more classical works. Maybe the audience will be larger. Maybe it will catch the eye of someone who needs the reassurance that is really is not her fault; that there is a way out.

Ok, the insights and the ego-stripping techniques are textbook. But since the textbooks relate what is typical, then that in itself is a service.

Here's the book. Romance Readers, enjoy. Be prepared to shed a tear or two. And share it with friends. Maybe one in need will read it, too.

Disclosure

Disclosure Clause: I am an affiliate advertiser of many merchants. I am also an opinionated critique of just about anything that strikes my fancy. In my postings I do tend to mention that a product would be good to try. Sometimes I am an affiliate for the product or a store that sells the product--even if I do not realize it and make the connection and post a product banner for it!--when I realize that I can advertise the product, I try to let you know that directly. However, if I do not, please take this statement that chances are I am an affiliate and could potentially be compensated for any mention of a goods or service. Also know that opinions expressed are my own and in no way express the positions of any merchant for which I advertise.
